Ruby Vs Python by Nobody: 1:37am On Nov 16, 2016 |
Ruby -There's more than one way to do the same thing -Ruby is a dynamic, reflective, object- oriented, general-purpose programming language. Companies that use Ruby: Hulu, Twitter, ZenDesk, Basecamp, Shopify, Urban Dictionary, GitHub Python -There's a most understandable way to do something and that is how it should be done. -Python is a high-level general purpose language that can be used to write a short script, build an API, or even build a complex object oriented web spider. Companies that use Python areGoogle, Yahoo Maps, Dropbox, Venmo, YouTube. You will often see in Ruby that there are multiple methods to solve the same problem and then you’ll see in Python that there’s one approach. It’s a very philosophical difference. The thing that unites them is the goal to write clean, readable, concise code. They’re both object-oriented languages. They’re both dynamic. They both have a lot of different functionality. They’re very flexible languages. Some languages have specific uses. They’re specifically tailored for a certain use case. A good example is a language called R, which is mainly used for statistical analysis and heavily in the academic world and anywhere you’ll be doing heavy math and statistics. Another example is SQL, which is a database language. It primarily exists to interact with the database. You wouldn’t write a web application with it. Both Ruby and Python are general purpose, which means they’re really flexible and you can do just about anything with them. You can talk to a database or build a web application or build a script for your computer to run, or you can run almost all of Google’s internal tools. 1 Like 1 Share |

Just Becuase You Love Ruby Does Not Make It The Best Scripting Language, Although While I Agree Ruby Has A Lot Of Syntatic Sugar Added To It, I Still Dont Agree With You, Ruby After All Wouldn't Be So Popular If Not For Rails/sinatra. The Fact Is No Programming Language Is "better"! But As For Me Python Is Bae!!! 1 Like |
